we have 3 squirrel nests on our property. Those critters are seriously paranoid, and stupid.
They do offer some entertainment as they continue to fall off the bird feeder though *G*
Ours aren’t that clumsy. They’re pretty sure-footed, which is good considering how they love to torment and taunt the dogs.
